    "A treasure like the space treasure chest is really convenient." An Rui looked at the closed treasure chest and exclaimed in admiration.  This kind of treasure is too expensive, and he doesn't know when he can afford it.  After putting away the Thunder Demonic Tree and the dragon bones, everyone no longer had the need to stay, and soon embarked on their return journey.  A few days later, the group successfully returned to Tiepao Port.  When passing a crossroads, another team of people crossed paths with An Rui and others, and the two teams happened to bump into each other.  An Rui was in the middle of the team and glanced at the team that suddenly appeared from the fork. It didn't matter if he didn't look at it. He was startled by the sight.  The team on the opposite side turned out to be Berrent¡¯s group!  Berendt, a fat, jeweled man, walked in front of the team, not knowing where he was going, followed by Sharrod and several guards.  As one of the well-known local businessmen, he and Cheryl seemed to know each other. After meeting, they greeted each other and chatted and laughed.  "This is really a narrow road for enemies." An Rui muttered secretly, turned his head and winked at Berego.  Among this group of people, Berrent could only recognize Berego.  If Berrent saw Berego, he would probably have evil intentions and take Berego away.  Berego also saw Berrent and his group, and quickly pulled down his hood, covering his head and face, lowered his head as much as possible, and walked to the side of the other person.  It¡¯s a pity that the elf¡¯s movements were a step too slow.  "Huh?" Sharod caught a glimpse of Berego's little movement out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head and looked over, his eyes slightly narrowed, projecting a sight as sharp as a blade.  Berego lowered his head lower, his heartbeat quickened rapidly, all the way to his throat.  He had been captured by Berrent's group before and knew what it meant to fall into their hands.  Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.  An Rui noticed Sharrod's gaze, and his heartbeat also accelerated. He slowly placed his hand on the hilt of the sword, getting ready for battle.  If Sharrod wants to be disadvantageous to Berego, he can only fight here.  He had just reached level 6, learned the soul-eating power, and absorbed 20 points of available dragon souls. His strength had improved. If they fought together, he would not have no chance of winning.  If that doesn't work, he can also rush over and kidnap Berrent. This big fat man is not a warrior and has little fighting ability, so he is easy to deal with.  A tense atmosphere instantly rose up and spread across the intersection, adding a touch of coolness to the hot weather.  "Miss Cheryl, you should really consider the proposal I gave you last time. If we work together to do this business, we will definitely be able to win-win" Berendt said enthusiastically. Halfway through, he suddenly felt the surroundings  There was something wrong in the atmosphere. He stopped and glanced around, "Sharod, what's going on?" "Boss Berent, look who that person is." Sharod pointed in the direction of Berego.  He pursed his lips.  Berrent followed the guidance and looked over, and saw an elf with his head lowered. He looked up and down a few times.  Although the elf wore a hood and covered his face with shadows, he still recognized it.  "He isBeiby the way, Berego! He is a slave who escaped from the dungeon!" Berrent's eyes widened, pointing at Berego and shouting, "Hurry, catch him quickly  Stop!" This voice was like a spark, instantly igniting the fuse of the conflict.  Hearing this, An Rui and others drew their weapons one after another, and bright white light flashed frequently on the street.  The three of them closed the distance and formed a tense situation.  Seeing this, Berrent's guards all drew their weapons and stared at Berego eagerly.  Sharod was the last one to draw his weapon, but he was the first one to walk towards Berego, showing his action style.  If this fight breaks out, there will definitely be blood splattered on the spot.  At this critical moment, a magnetic and majestic voice sounded, like a basin of cold water poured on everyone's heads.  "Boss Berrent, what's going on? Do your people want to take action against my team?" Cheryl frowned and asked intently.  Berrent was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that there was such a famous businesswoman beside him.  "Well, Miss Cheryl, don't get me wrong. I don't want to embarrass your team. I just want to capture the escaped slave. You may have heard that not long ago, there was a group of people who opposed me.  , and released all the slaves I imprisoned in the dungeon. The elf among your team is one of the slaves, and I still have his bond of sale." Berrent quickly explained.  .  In this world, whether you are a free person or a slave is determined by a piece of paper. If you sign a deed of sale, you will become a slave.?Slave.  Of course, not many people are willing to sell themselves to another person. Most of these contracts are signed under forced circumstances.  "I am a free man, not anyone's slave!" Berego pointed the tip of the arrow at Berrent, tightened the bowstring, and said angrily.  Sharrod took a step to the side and stood between Berego and Berrent, blocking the arrow that was waiting to be fired.  Cheryl turned her head, first glanced at Berego, then at Anri, and looked at him for a few seconds.  From An Rui's eyes, she saw a hint of request, and secretly thought to herself: "He helped me find such a big gold mine, let me help him this time. I can't watch Berrent being in trouble."  They." When she turned back, Cheryl's face had already changed into a fierce expression. As a woman, she was more imposing than the man at this time.  "Boss Berent, the slave you are talking about is my friend. I hope you will let him go for my sake. As for his deed of sale, I am willing to pay to redeem it. What do you think?"  Lil asked.  "This" Berrent's face froze, and a look of embarrassment appeared on his fat face, "This is not just a matter of money. This group of escaped slaves is related to the group of people who are against me. I want to investigate through them.  Exposing the identity of that group of people is my main purpose. If it were an ordinary slave, Miss Cheryl would speak out once, of course, but this time the situation is special. " "My friend's character is special.  He is very decent and has nothing to do with the people who are against you. There is no need for Boss Berrent to hold on to him. Even if you take him back, you won't be able to ask anything.  Don't be fooled by your friend's appearance. Who knows what he has done behind your back? " "You mean you don't want to let my friend go?" "Well" Uncle.  Lunt drawled a long note, his eyes rolling around, obviously weighing the gains and losses.  Cheryl¡¯s pretty face turned sinister, and her snow-white cheeks were as if they were carved out of ice. A wave of magic power spread from her body, forming an invisible pressure that enveloped Burundt¡¯s group.  Thirty yards above her head, a dark cloud quickly formed, as if filled with thick ink, as dark as night.  Sharod showed a solemn look and turned his attention from Berego to Cheryl. The thunder sword in his hand crackled, and the lightning danced like a group of snakes.  Berrent raised his head and glanced at the dark clouds in the sky, recalling some of Cheryl's deeds, his eyes twitched, and he was finally defeated.  He knew that he could not defeat the witch Cheryl, so it was better to take a step back at this time.  "Okay. For Miss Cheryl's sake, I promise not to pursue this matter any further. Tomorrow I will send someone to deliver the elf's deed of betrayal to my house." Berendt looked like he was discouraged.  Like a rubber ball, he said with a smile on his face.  "Very good. Thank you, Boss Berrent, for selling me this face. I will go back and consider the business you mentioned just now." Cheryl's face slowed down, like a melting iceberg, covering Berrent and others.  The pressure was immediately reduced a lot.  "That's the best. As I said just now, this business is beneficial to both you and me." Berendt said happily.  This simmering dispute was resolved by Cheryl in a few words. Under her and Berendt's orders, both sides withdrew their weapons.  Sharod was the last one to take back the Thunder Sword, obviously unwilling to do so.  An Rui breathed a sigh of relief. With their current strength, they are by no means a match for Burundt and others. It would be great if they could cease their activities.  He looked at Cheryl with a grateful look.  "Boss Berrent, let's end the conversation today. We still have things to do, so let's take a step forward." Cheryl said calmly, ending the conversation.  She got on the horse, held the reins with her black leather-gloved hands, and shook slightly.  The horse stepped out immediately and was very obedient.  The people behind them followed up on horseback, and the entire team got back on the road and passed by Burundt's team.  Sharrod's eyes swept over the people in Cheryl's team one by one. His eyes were very unkind. When he looked at Berego, his eyes stayed for three seconds. When he looked at Anrui,  , his pupils suddenly condensed, as if a wild beast had discovered its prey.  Anrui felt that he might have been recognized. Although he had disguised himself before, his eyes and body shape could not be disguised, and it was not impossible to be recognized.  If so, that would be terrible.  He tried his best to stay calm, ignored Sharod, and walked past him.  Although he was far away, he still felt that Sharod was looking at him, like a light on his back.  An Rui¡¯s feeling is correct, Sharod has indeed been watchingLook, eyes never leave.  "Sharod, stop looking, let's go." Berendt patted his subordinate on the shoulder and said.  "That person looks familiar." Sharod stared at An Rui's back and narrowed his eyes.  "Looks familiar? Do you know him?" "I can't remember it for a while." "Forget it if you can't remember it. We are both in Tiepao Port, and it is normal for someone to look familiar." Sharrod took a deep breath, and then  He moved his eyes away from An Rui.
